Phase Eight opens flagship Manchester store
Phase Eight has opened a new flagship store in Manchester as part of the latest stage of its retail expansion strategy.
Situated at 8 Exchange Street in the city’s premium shopping district, the 3,200 square foot space has bespoke elements such as rose-tinted marble feature walls, architectural arches, and large-format digital screens. It also features a unique mural by British female artist, Adriana Jaros.
Phase Eight head of creative Leanne Warriner said: “For our Manchester store we wanted to achieve an elevated and unique shopping experience by creating an inspiring space that compliments the contemporary and feminine design of our collections.”
The store sells Phase Eight’s latest event and ready-to-wear collections, including the brand’s black-tie range, Collection 8. From 15 January it will also stock the brand’s first childrenswear collection.
This year, Phase Eight has also opened stores in Westfield Stratford City, Meadowhall, Leeds, Cambridge, and Milton Keynes. Further openings are planned for Cribbs Causeway, Bluewater, Kingston, Edinburgh, and Hamburg in 2024.
Caraline Money, group retail director at Phase Eight, said: “We are delighted to be bringing the flagship experience to Manchester. The retail team cannot wait.”
